DH and I have been together for 15 years. In all that time he has always had a (well groomed, not long) beard. I know lots of women really dislike facial hair but I've always liked it. Anyway, today he impulsively decided to shave it all off.
The shape of his face looks completely different. It's also aged him. A lot. He looks like his Dad now actually even though I never saw a resemblance before.
I don't like it
I know, I know.. that makes me shallow, superficial and I am really not proud of myself but I can't help it. He's just so much more attractive to me with the beard. I haven't said anything and I won't because I would never want to hurt his feelings.
I know it's his body and his choice. Plus I'm the first to be outraged if a man tries to dictate how a woman should dress, how much make up she should wear etc etc and it would make me a total hypocrite. So I'm planning on keeping this to myself and hoping that he decides to grow it back that I get used to it.
Has anyone else been temporarily gutted about their partner changing something superficial about themselves?
Really hoping it's not just me
